Based on what I've seen from both teams, I give the edge to the Vikings in this game right now. I hope I'm wrong. If we win, that will be a big confidence boost to our players.

Circular Arguments: They are a heck of an annoyance

Their defense scares me.
But this would be a HUGE win!
I'd LIVE to screw up their opening of their new mausoleum!

The likely fact that the Vikings are probably a better team than the Packers when the Packers have Aaron Rodgers and the Vikings have, well, whatever it is they have is sad.

This game could go either way simply because of the inconsistency of the Vikings QB situation. But if they get solid QB play somehow, they are better than the Packers and should win. The Packers might be catching them at a good time, though.

This is a tough call. Their defense looked strong against a suspect offense last weekend, but it is hard to say how they stack up against a decent offense. While their QB situation isn't ideal, they have enough of a supporting cast to put some points on the board.

Our defense had some ups and downs, but made enough plays to come home with a W. If they can slow AP and force them to throw, I like our chances. Offense needs to play better than in Jacksonville or this game could be a rough one.

I think we will just squeak out with a win.
27-24

I see this one being very close, waiting to see on who is starting at QB.

Jaguars are on the cusp of becoming a good team (another draft should complete things) so we should take good confidence in our Run D stopping AP and forcing them to throw

The Titans handed The Vikes 2 td's.

I don't see Aaron and company doing that.

Even the best defense will wear down if it is on the field long enough.

Don't care who starts at qb for The Vikes, nether guy scares me.

STOP ADRIAN PETERSON AND THEY ARE DONE.

Packers 26 Vikings 17.

BOOK IT!

I was addicted to The Hokey Pokey, but I turned myself around!

The Packers opened against an AFC unfamiliar opponent and thus did not deploy Jared Cook as to not give their conference and division rival any tape on how they were using Cook.

Sunday Night, we will see the Cook packages.

Packers 31
Vikings 17

Be it Sam or Shaun, my advice to either is "Run bitch, RUN!"

A.Rodgers vs S.Hill ? Ridiculous
A.Rodgers vs S.Bradford ? Ridiculous

Not a close game, not even close.
